The Skulls was a 2000 film starring Joshua Jackson, Paul Walker, and Leslie Bibb; and directed by Rob Cohen. Its plot is based upon the conspiracy theories surrounding Yale University's Skull and Bones student society. The movie was critically panned (For example, it was one of Roger Ebert's most hated films), but successful enough to spawn two direct-to-video sequels, The Skulls II, starring Robin Dunne, and The Skulls III, with Clare Kramer as the first woman member of the society.
The movie was filmed at the University of Toronto but it is strongly hinted that the plot takes place at Yale, with large "Y"s on uniforms and walls the most prominent clue. Many of U of T's most notable buildings are featured in the film. A part of University College stands in for the Skull's headquarters while the office of the Skull's evil leader shown as being in Trinity College. The rival society is headquartered in the student council building. The protagonists live and eat in Burwash Hall. The opening rowing scene was shot in St. Catharines, Ontario.
